Phishing attempts by ads on mobile browsers
Posted: 09 Oct 2015, 22:49
I'd like to visit Sandra And Woo and Gaia from my mobile devices (currently using a Galaxy Note 3 and a Galaxy Note Pro tablet), but sadly there are (probably) ads that try to scam the visitors into phishing attempts ("your device has been infected by # viruses", "Facebook has selected you", "you're a winner!" and so on). Big frightening or exciting alert in the middle and a fake Facebook/Google/Twitter/whatever page in the background. It's even carefully translated in your language. Can't go back since the SOB script replaced all the browser history... of course.
This must come to an end. Enough said.
Also because it could be a matter of time before Google blocks this site.
The result is that I visit sandraandwoo.com with a PC... with AdBlock on.
Nah, actually it's disabled for this domain. Desktop browsers seem to be unaffected, but I will turn it on at the first sight of ad obtrusiveness.
I attached a screenshot.
(By the way, this site really needs to be mobile-friendly. I can give a hand.)
